AF come back! All is forgiven!! I couldn't wait to see the back of her in the summer 06' but now I desperately want her to come back so we can get on with #2!

In an attempt to suss out when AF's likely to return I've been temping and checking my saliva on my ISIS scope and it seems that I am definitely not ovulating.

Having resigned myself to a long and boring wait to become fertile again I thought I'd start a new thread for support. Any fellow MNers out there in the same boat?

Hi loopy - I'm still bf 18-month old DS (usually twice a day) and we're ttc at the moment.

My periods came back pretty quickly, first one at 4 months, then fairly regular at 6 months. DS was still feeding quite a lot at the time, including at night .

I'm fairly sure that I'm ovulating, although I don't do the temping thing. We've just been trying the lots of sex route, DH can't believe his luck

Hi NL, thanks for the answer. DD1 was born in June 07. I am still giving her 2 bf's a day.

Were you BFing your DC's and if so did AF returning coincide with you giving up BFing? Sorry for the Spanish Inquisition, you have no idea how bored I am waiting for things to ge back to normal ? charting temps is only fun when there is something to chart!

So when was no 1 born? I had dd3 in April 07 and still no sign of AF - with previous babies it's taken 9-10 months - so could be any day. On the other hand I really do NOT want to get pregnant so it's not bothering me. Hope you hear from some fellow ttc's soon - and good luck!
